The case for the permanent injunction (where it will be closed forever) is set for November 9th. The affidavits were collected for that purpose. Without the details provided by the immediate neighbors of Fun Fair on the drug activity connected to the place in addition to the work residents did assisting the police with drug arrests around that "business," there would be no case for its closure. So the citizens are to be commended for their diligent and frustrating work the past several months. Drug activity on Fun Fair's block has decreased dramatically since its closure. But there have been a couple of incidents of aggression by dealers and users. Last Saturday night, the drug dealers and users stood in front of Fun Fair and acted in a disorderly and threatening way to the neighbors. The broken sign is most likely the work of a frustrated crackhead. Just so you know, currently Fun Fair has a temporary restraining order.
